I, okay? Next time don't make it sound like the reason you dislike protein shakes is sweeteners!
Why did you drink them before, if you appear to fundamentally object to the idea?

I did not know better that's why I drink them.
Now I know better and I don't.
"know better" in what way, that applies to sweetener-free protein?
You must have always known humans were apex predators, and that was the only non-sweetener reason you listed.
I learned that humans are apex predators a couple of years ago.
Meat contains essential fats to various degrees while protein powder does not at all. Usually, protein powder ([1] as an example) is not exactly matched to the human profile of amino acids [2], that means extraneous amino acids will be converted to glucose and stored as fat.

Notice that ratio between leucine and methionine is 3/1 in consumption profile and is much higher in the whey protein profile. This leucine most probably will be wasted.

Humans aren't even, in fact, apex predators. We are the preys of big felines (tigers in Asia, Jaguar in South America, Lions in Africa and Asia) which are the true apex predators in their respective ecosystems.
